Comment (by lsaffre):

 Patch 10808.diff fixes only one symptom, not the real problem.
 The real problem is that in case of diamond inheritance there are
 duplicate field definitions.
 My patch 10808b.diff won't fix the real problem, but another symptom: when
 the top-level model of your diamond structure contains a ForeignKey, then
 you get problems when trying to create inline formsets. To show this
 problem I added a "Owner" class to SmileyChris's diamond inheritance test.
 inlineformset_factory() gets disturbed because it thinks that PizzeriaBar
 contains more than one foreign key to Owner. The workaround is to specify
 the fk_name explicitly when calling inlineformset_factory(). Unfortunately
 this workaround needs another patch because inlineformset_factory() just
 can't imagine that a model can have two fields with the same name.
 Patch 10808b.diff contains 10808.diff + my suggestion.
